Trying to be a good human. So very trying.

@liamgallagher Good for you. Could you do us a favour and stop singing/nicking other people's songs?

If, when being told facts that do not support your PoV, you find yourself arguing "Yes, but..., Yes, but..." and refusing to acknowledge those demonstrable facts , the best thing you can do is to ponder why you are so determined to hold onto hate. Well held, @reginalddhunter ✌️

This is a story about how a reported antisemitism row involving comedian @reginalddhunter unfolded. If you've only read mainstream media you'll have a partial view. The story unravelled on social media and we now have much-needed context. It began with this in The Telegraph

@RoryStewartUK Rory, the replies here are largely in opposition to your comment. Judging by these obvious AI replies it seems that opposition is largely manufactured.

@PigeonLimp48857 @DiFi_Lobster @mrjamesob Good luck with that. This is a chap who probably uses "should of", "pacifically" and "nucular".

@lou_loutinks @GabbyLogan She was quite clear about her feelings on this very specific topic so there is no need to speculate why. Anyway, I'm sorry you feel like public enemy no. 1 but it's hard to feel sorry for you only a day after Southport 🙄 Feel better soon 🙏

I was asked to do Strictly last year.

I spoke with producers at an initial Zoom meeting. I told them about my opinions, my support for women’s rights, & warned them that I’d be a “controversial choice”, so I wanted to know if they’d have my back, should I receive an online backlash. They said yes. And, to be honest, I believed them, as they seemed understanding & sincere. Ultimately, I decided it wasn’t for me.

The next thing I heard was that Amanda had been signed. So I wrote to the producers I’d spoken with, pleading with them to make sure they had HER back, as she’d previously had terrible abuse here on ‘X’.

I asked them to take care of her, as she’d recently had pile on after pile on for speaking her mind & had since left ‘X’. I heard nothing back. And why would I? I was nothing to do with the programme any longer & I assumed my email had been read & its contents noted.

To see her distress here, to hear what happened, & to witness the effect of this ongoing, eternally vitriolic & downright cruel online mob is just horrendous &, tragically only too familiar to many who simply ask the ‘wrong question’ at the ‘wrong time’ of the ‘wrong people’.

When are people going to finally wake up & say ‘enough really is enough’ & make immediate & definitive decisions to stamp this out? It’s utterly galling to see government, institutions, charities, the media & lobby groups dismissing women’s concerns over ANY subject pertinent to THEM? Why are women’s needs STILL on the bottom rung of the ladder??

Crimes against women are skyrocketing & women rights are being rolled back day by day, & yet, when they speak up, & out, they are demonised & used as punching bags for an ever- increasingly aggressive movement, brimming with misogyny & entitlement.

Solidarity with you, Amanda Abbington. ❤️💪🏻

That you’ve been let down & abused in this way is unconscionable.

Please know there’s an ARMY of people here, who will always have your back. ❤️

@BarristerSecret Seriously, this is not meant in any way "Think you could do any better?" but your post is as old, oft-repeated and pointless as the proposed law itself. We need to change the song. Is it not better to use your platform to look at why current laws are not addressing this?

@Richard41786952 @jessphillips Bot. Hate-mongering bot. No real account could be filled with that much stupidity.

[John Reetham @jontom460]

@ToriesZeroSeats @MattHowland4 @Richard41786952 @jessphillips Similarly, racists are most likely to be stupid and lack any understanding of Venn diagrams.

@toryboypierce @RachelReevesMP How Comparison Works, Lesson 1a.

That was bad, and a global problem caused by people like your mates.

This is worse, and caused by your mates.

You fucking child.

@RishiSunak Goodbye, Rishi. It's been a displeasure. Thank you for being so phenomenally out of touch, self serving, manipulative, deceptive, arrogant and stupid. You have done us the greatest favour in killing off the old guard more spectacularly than we could ever have hoped.

@phlode It's been a long while since I've seen the film, but I'm pretty confident that Matthew McConaughey is pictured here alongside John Leguizamo.

@ArtShopNola @codebirm @gunsnrosesgirl3 Yep, you come down a tiny bit off the spot on the moving walkway. It is powered to overcome the resistance upon and remain at constant speed. When you jump you break the bond needed to carry you along, the air through which you move continues to act against you = deceleration.

@SoVeryBritish More curse than punishment, my default is...
"I hope you stub your toe."

If I'm *really* angry it changes subtly but devastatingly to...
"I hope you stub your toe. Twice."

@TomLevins1 @lisanandy You know that there has to be at least some vaguely acknowledged truth when claiming someone is "called" something, don't you, ConTom?
